Hmmmm . . . noses . . . noses. Noses.
A nose is a nose is a nose . . .
If we called them something else, they would still smell the same.
Some logic:
Two eyes -> 3-D vision
Two ears -> 3-D audition

the principles of inductive logic,
Two nostrils -> 3-D olfaction!!
Q.E.D.!!! Yet another 3-D locational cue, as yet
un-addressed by cognitive psychology.
